Themes of the absurd, randomness and repetition recurr throughout my work. My Influences vary widely and range from mapping to cosmology to comedy. I am interested in finding new forms by contrasting different aspects of production including video, performance and light and its effects. My performances highlight the residues and remnants of the event. Often, small particles and volatile materials are distributed, expanded, exploded or sucked away. The works coincide in contrasting the materiality of actual, depicted and used objects with the materiality of the forms of their representation.
